Design & Build
From Concept to Completion, We Handle Everything
Our Design & Build service offers a seamless, single-point solution for your project.
From first sketches to final touches, we manage it all with precision and care.
What We Do
Our Design & Build service unites architecture, engineering, and construction under one roof, giving you a single point of contact from start to finish. We take the time to understand your vision, budget, and priorities before developing detailed designs that balance aesthetics, practicality, and buildability. Clear cost estimates are provided throughout so you always know where you stand.
Once the design is approved, we move smoothly into construction, with the same team delivering your project through to completion. This integrated approach saves time, reduces stress, and ensures better quality control, as the people who design your space are also the ones building it. From planning permissions to final inspections, we handle every detail with care and professionalism.
Benefits of Design & Build:
- Single point of contact and responsibility
- Better cost control from the outset
- Faster project delivery and completion
- Seamless coordination between design and construction
- Fewer disputes and misunderstandings
- Design optimized for practical construction

FAQS
Common Questions About Design & Build
Find answers to the most frequently asked questions about our design & build services.
What is included in your Design & Build service?
Our comprehensive Design & Build service covers everything from initial concept and architectural design through to construction and final finishing. We manage planning applications, building regulations, structural engineering, all construction work, project management, and quality control. You’ll have a single point of contact throughout, making the process smooth and stress-free.
How long does a Design & Build project take?
Timelines vary depending on the scope and complexity of your project. A typical extension might take 4-6 months from design to completion, while a full house build could take 12-18 months. We’ll provide a detailed timeline during the design phase, broken down into key milestones including design approval, planning permission, construction phases, and final completion.
What are the advantages of Design & Build over traditional methods?
Design & Build offers several key advantages: a single point of responsibility, better cost control from the outset, faster project delivery, improved coordination between design and construction teams, and fewer disputes or misunderstandings. Because we design with buildability in mind, we can often identify cost savings and efficiencies that separate design and construction teams might miss.
How do you manage the budget and prevent cost overruns?
We establish a clear budget during the design phase and provide detailed cost breakdowns before construction begins. Our integrated approach means we can accurately price the work from the start. We maintain transparent communication throughout, flagging any potential additional costs immediately and providing options. We also include contingencies for unforeseen issues and provide regular cost reports so you always know where you stand financially.
Can I make changes during the construction phase?
Yes, changes can be made during construction, though we encourage finalizing as much as possible during the design phase. Any changes during construction will be assessed for their impact on cost and timeline, and we’ll provide you with a written variation order before proceeding. We aim to be flexible while ensuring changes don’t compromise the project’s success.
Do you handle planning permission and building regulations?
Absolutely. As part of our Design & Build service, we manage all planning applications and building regulations submissions. We’ll prepare all necessary drawings and documentation, liaise with planning officers and building control, and handle any queries or amendments. We have extensive experience navigating the planning process and will guide you through every step.
